Description

Definition

WTRGETFRQ reports how frequently per day, per week, or per month the household members go out to stock up on drinking water.

The first digit of WTRGETFRQ indicates the time unit used for reporting, with "1" indicating times per day, "2" indicating times per week, and "3" indicating times per month. The second and third digits report how frequently household members fetched drinking water within the specified time unit. Thus, for example, the code 105 indicates five times per day, while the code 205 indicates five times per week.

The information in WTRGETFRQ is taken from the household record, linked to the record of the woman respondent. This information applies to household residents, not temporary visitors, so researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2").
